Psalm 62

Revised Geneva Translation

62 Yet my soul keeps silence to God. From Him comes my salvation.

² He alone is my strength and my salvation, my defense. I shall not be greatly moved.

³ How long will you imagine mischief against a man? You shall all be slain. You shall be as a bowed wall, as a wall shaken.

⁴ Yet, they consult to cast him down from his high position. Their delight is in lies. They bless with their mouths but curse with their hearts. Selah.

⁵ My soul, keep silent to God only (for my hope is from Him).

⁶ He alone is my strength and my salvation, my defense. I shall not be moved.

⁷ In God is my salvation and my glory, the rock of my strength. In God is my trust.

⁸ Trust in Him always, you people. Pour out your hearts before Him, God our Hope. Selah.

⁹ Surely, men of low degree are a vapor, and the chief men liars. To lay them upon a scale, they are altogether lighter than a breath.

¹⁰ Do not trust in oppression or in robbery. Do not be vain. If riches increase, do not set your heart thereon.

¹¹ God has spoken once, twice I have heard it, that power belongs to God;

¹² and to You, O LORD, mercy. For You reward everyone according to his work. A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah
